Description
NASA’s Technology Transfer Program is seeking companies interested in licensing a patented hypersonic flight‑control system that uses magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) principles to generate lift and drag forces on aircraft or spacecraft traveling at hypersonic speeds. The technology consists of a pair of surface electrodes and an underlying electromagnet powered by energy harvested from ionized atmospheric flow. License rights may be exclusive or non‑exclusive and may include specific fields of use; NASA will not provide any funding for development. Interested parties must submit a license application through NASA’s ATLAS portal.
• Electrode‑based MHD control system for hypersonic flight vehicles
• No government funding; revenue comes from licensing fees/royalties
• Application submitted via ATLAS (https://technology.nasa.gov/patent/LAR-TOPS-363)
